She's three!

Bitsy is three - and has been for a week. For three more days, I have a 3 year-old, a 4 year-old and a 5 year-old.
Here they are on Annie's birthday. She didn't get to have a birthday party because Katherine had strep throat. :( Nin woke from a nap on 12/20, walked into the kitchen and got sick. I started making phone calls to pull Harrison out of Parent-Baby Dedication (again - had to pull him out of the first one because of my section recovery issues) and cancel Annie's birthday party. :( Poor Bits!! Thankfully she is still small enough that she won't be telling Nin "You ruined my third birthday!!!" tee-hee. Her favorite birthday gifts were Dora DVDs (she got four of them!) and a Splash-Around Dora and Boots for the tub.

Here she is showing off one of her birthday gifts from Bippie. This photo wonderfully captures her personality. Bippie got her several great outfits plus the Tinkerbell DVD. Another popular gift.


I can't believe she's three. She's so little! Her sweet personality is really beginning to shine. She is friendly, though a bit shy at first. She is so loving. And oh, this child is SILLY!! She's also our little lap bug - if you're sitting, she wants to be in your lap. Hey, that's fine with me!


She is also our snuggle bug. If she wakes in the middle of the night, she comes into our room, climbs into bed with us and snuggles. She used to go to Brad's side of the bed but now she gets in on my side - and pushes me off my pillow because she likes my pillow better. I can't even give her my "second" pillow. No. She wants the down pillow. The turkey!


We have definitely been blessed with this little bug! We love her madly.
